RE: Newbies RVers
If you are talking about class c units, before you buy one go and rent one from cruise america for a week than you can figure out what you like and don't like.

RE: I-70 Colorado in April
We got buried in snow on May 9 last year up by Leadville, so just watch the weather and if I-70 is bad just stay around Denver area 1 or 2 days. Bear Creek State park by Morrison is a nice campground.

RE: Regular cab under Outfitter Apex 9.5?
The sad thing is you will still pay around $40,000.00 dollars for a regular cab F-350 or 3500 truck.

RE: Regular cab under Outfitter Apex 9.5?
I have a Ford F-250 super cab which I love. I don't think it is a problem putting a TC on a standard size truck. A lot of people do it. I do agree a crew cab truck is to long for a lot of parking spaces.

RE: Used truck camper
Speaking of keeping DW happy, we spend a lot of time deciding what camper to upgrade to. She wanted something bigger and I wanted to keep my truck and Northern Lite which are payed for. So in a way I won we decided that on long trips about every 3 or 4 days she could pick a hotel to stay at.:)

RE: RAM 2500 V10 model year 2000
I used to have a palomino pop up camper that weighed around 2000 pounds ready to camp. I agree finding a hard side camper that weighs 2500 pounds wet will be a challenge.

RE: Who can help me pick out a 600 watt solar sytem?
That is a great deal, I have put solar on 2 campers and have had good luck with Renogy products. I own a couple 50 watt panels that are china made I use them for a portable unit. The quality isn't the same.

RE: Who can help me pick out a 600 watt solar sytem?
I just looked on amazon a 600 solar kit from Renogy is $1446.00 so you may have to increase your budget. Or buy china solar panels.

RE: timbrens
I really like the lower stable loads on my truck they take the sway out of the ride.

RE: Anyone with the Ford 6.2 Carrying TC
That 11.3 MPG is what I am getting with my truck and camper. You have to look at your fuel bill this way, either pay a gas station or pay a hotel $75.00 a night.

RE: timbrens
I have had timbrens on my 2011 Ford F250 FX for 7 years. I carry a 3500 truck camper when it is loaded ready to camp, they work great and the lower stable loads help a lot also.

RE: Anyone with the Ford 6.2 Carrying TC
I haul a 2017 Northern Lite 811 on a 2011 Ford F250 FX. The truck weights around 7000 pounds empty, with the camper on the truck it weights 10500 pounds. We spend a lot of time in the mountains and the 6.2 gasser does very well. But sometime I will get a new truck with the 7.3 gasser.

RE: New Ford 7.3 Gas
I also have been interested in the new 7.3 gas Ford F350. I own a 2011 f250 with the 6.2 gasser with a 6 speed tranny. I think the 10 speed tranny with more power would be good in the mountains.

RE: Adding extra solar panel to 2019 Northern Lite
I just put another 100 watt panel on my 811. I have put solar on before and I have had good luck with Renogy products. The charge controller that Northern Lite installs at the factory is a pretty good one.
